Bathtubs issue/ repaint? bath fitters?

[Katherine T.]

Hi BP,

I recently purchased my first investment property and quote excited!  The renovation is going well as far as I can tell.  My present dilemma is the bathtub.  It is has yellow stains  which I thought would be an easy fix with strong detergents.  Overall,  the fiberglass tub is in fairly good condition but the stains.  My question - Are there durable ways to fix the tub ( perhaps paint) or do I need to replace the tub. From my research there are bath fitters and painting over the tub options.  I am not sure how effective this methods tend to be.   I am afraid replacing the tub will cost me more than I am ready to spend on this one item.  I would appreciate advise  from  investors/ flippers.  

Also,  I am in the Birmingham area.  Any leads to professionals that can help with this job will be greatly appreciated. PS - I do not mind taking on this project myself as a DIY if  its not that involving.  How have people handled bathtub renos? 

Thanks,

Katherine
